“Great Location” Just stayed in this great little condo in april and felt the need to comment about the experience. Mathieu was fantastic during the booking process offering a number of his properties to fit our needs and price range. We ended up choosing a condo in the Heliko property and found the location perfect for our needs, north end of 5th away from all the noise and crowds, but close enough to make everything walkable (10min to the heart of 5th, 2min to beach). This unit also came equipped with a/C in the main area as well as the bedroom, and fully stocked kitchen (with nice new utensils, cookware, china, etc). The wireless is free and there is satellite TV as well, don't be put off by the extra electricity charges we were there for 8 nights and racked up a whopping 100 peso bill (7 bucks).
We took the bus from Cancun and caught a taxi from the bus stop to the property (50 pessos/4$), we had a little difficulty finding the building because there are a number of higher end condo units in the neighborhood and because Helikos is a smaller property so no one in Playa knows where it is. However once we found the right building Mathieu was waiting for us and was nice enough to show us around the neighborhood including where the best restaurants are and where to book activities through. After that anything we needed was only a call away, even though we found no reasons as everything worked great. We didn't have a car and found walking to be perfect! Strolling down 5th in the mornings for a coffee and exploring all the restaurants at night was half the fun. After getting our bearings we ventured off the main tourist drag and enjoyed the much cheaper offerings on 10th and 30th. This is where you'll get a much more authentic Playa experience, don't hesitate to wander around as everyone is very nice.
The only negative from this was we were there during a very busy time (Easter) so there were others in the complex coming home late being loud (we were ground floor) but no big deal

“Great location, just the right size.” We would highly recommend renting in this building. David communicated with me ahead of time and even waited up late until we got there. We spent 10 nights there and would go back again. We were a half block from 5th Avenue. Far enough away for sound but close enough to walk there. Taxi's were easy to get. Definitely was a positive part of our vacation.
